QUOTE(Coomer @ Jan 19, 2005 - 9:15 PM) Good info. I'll see if I can work on a how-to at some point. ![]() So is the throw a huge difference from stock? Is it too hard to shift gears on a daily basis? [right][snapback]235694[/snapback][/right] I would say the throw is probley reduced around 60%, so yeah a good amount, i noticed when i went on a back road earlier, i was saying in higher rpms when i was shifting.. so I think its def nicer. I wouldnt say its to hard to shift for nomr driving but it is stiff. Its a lil stiffer then my brothers civic short shifter. Im not sure if its because i put grease alla round the ball and its gumming up from the cold or what. but im hoping some more driving will loosing it up, it already felt a lil looser when driving it home this morn compared to last night, so we'll see. But to most I am def glad I did it. and worth the money |

Too bad i dont have a grinder or dremel. Will any dremel work? I guess what im asking is, Will my cheap dremel be able to handle such grinding or is the metal maleable enought to file into shape?

[right][snapback]236268[/snapback][/right] yeah it should, just get a nice bit, and make sure u keep it round. u might even be able to use a metal file. I would say its worth it, cause I dont think any shifter is worth $170 |

Why not just use a shor shifter from a 7th gen?

Nah you can get the same type of shifter as the lancer, eclipse one for $30 off of ebay. I figure it would be easier to get it to fit since it is for a celica. I just ordered one I'll let you know how it fits.

But it also seems it comes with some washers/spacers that might work. good luck with it. |

Yea they are $47 shipped but it already has new bolts and spacers so I thought it may work better and easier than the other one.

[right][snapback]236635[/snapback][/right] Keep in mind the bolts an spacers might not wokr, also for the rear ones, your going to need somthing slimer, cause there going to make the consol bend out a lil. |

The other day when itw asnt freezing out, more like 40 degrees, I was shifting perfect, and very niceley, Im very glad i did it, and def for the price. |
